  The Stories We Carry: How Drama Therapy Helps Healing

  Aug 18, 20269 min

  In this episode, I’m reflecting on Netflix’s Don’t Say Good Luck and the ways theater, storytelling, and our everyday roles can help us better understand ourselves. I’ll share a little of my own story, explain what drama therapy is, and talk about three ways I integrate drama therapy into traditional psychotherapy: Role Sort, the Hero’s Journey, and storytelling/externalization. This is a gentle conversation about identity, healing, the stories we carry, and what can happen when we give ourselves permission to see our lives from a different perspective.

  Releasing Your Burdens is Not Just Mental, It’s Physical

  Aug 5, 202616 min

  Hi friends! Have you ever wondered why it’s so hard to “just give it to God”? In this episode, we explore how God designed our minds, bodies, and spirits to work together—and why surrender is more than a spiritual concept; it’s a daily practice. In this episode: ​Why your body holds onto stress ​Why uncertainty feels so exhausting ​What Scripture teaches about surrender ​How to recognize when you’re carrying more than God intended Scripture ​1 Peter 5:7 ​Matthew 11:28–30 ​Psalm 46:10 Dr. Herbert Benson of Harvard Medical School spent decades studying the Relaxation Response , finding that practices such as prayer, repeating meaningful Scripture, and slow breathing can help calm the body’s stress response by lowering heart rate and blood pressure and activating the body’s natural relaxation system. His research reminds us that the God who invites us to pray also designed our bodies to respond to stillness and His presence.

Im honored to be teaching at the Beautiful Ashes Ministries Women’s Retreat on September 18–20, 2026 , where I’ll be sharing practical, Christ-centered tools for nervous system regulation and whole-person healing.

  What Sheep Teach Us About Anxiety, Attachment, and the Good Shepherd

  Jul 20, 202613 min

  What do sheep, your nervous system, and Psalm 23 possibly have in common? More than you might think. In this episode, we’re exploring five fascinating facts about sheep that bring Psalm 23 to life in a fresh and meaningful way. From why sheep depend completely on their shepherd, to the purpose of anointing them with oil, to how they find safety in the shepherd’s presence, you’ll discover timeless truths that speak directly to your own relationship with Christ. We’ll also talk about how God designed our nervous systems to experience peace—not through striving or having everything under control, but by remaining close to our Good Shepherd. If you’ve been feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or weary, this episode is an invitation to rest in the One who restores your soul. Join Me for Restorative Yoga! If you’re in the Hattiesburg area, I’d love for you to join me for my Psalm 23 Restorative Yoga Class at March Christian Counseling.
